CHIM Posted April 18, 2005 Share Posted April 18, 2005 Finally got a subaru club started in central oregon "High Desert Flat Rat's", Anyway, we did our second meet yesterday in a gravel pit, Lots of fun!! When we where about to rool up and head home i got the bright idea to jump my only running car/First subaru. Hit the hill at about 60mph or so with a sloppy landing! The guys said i landed on the nose and the tail swung around throwing me back into the air doing a 360 before hitting a large pile of gravel. It all happened so fast i didn't know what the hell was going on! Anyway, i have to retire my first love, 81 gl 1.8, wich of like 2 weeks ago got a 5-speed. Bent both back swing arms,struts,and frame from front to back bumper, She's alittle bananna shaped now. Funny thing is it has never held the as well as it does now:) But at least this gives me more reason to get my turbo on the road. Farwell to another subaru gone down in a blaze of glory, I'll miss her ~CHIM~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PetterFan Posted April 18, 2005 Share Posted April 18, 2005 Next time you decide to jump, put a sand bag or two in the rear. Should prevent a nose-breaking landing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
